I'm a beginner interested in building an amateur built plane. I've
decided to buy some books from the EAA. Probably all are pretty good,
but I don't want too much repetitive material. I'm trying to decide
between the following:

Total cost of books = $196.65 (If you can't get them cheaper)

SWAG of total cost of homebuilt airplane = $39,330.00

% of money spent on books = 1%

Resale value of books = $98.33

Non-recoverable investment in knowledge = $98.32 or 1/2 of 1%.

Avoiding ONE major f**kup during construction = Priceless
